Sample Lead Time & MOQ, Explained in Plain Terms
Before you order custom promotional products, two questions almost always come first: how long will the sample take, and how many do I need to order? Here are clear, honest answers based on how we actually work at Runtologo.
We produce promotional gifts, custom bags (canvas totes, pencil pouches), insulated bottles, and outdoor gear. The short version: samples generally take about 7–10 days, and MOQ depends on the product — we confirm the exact numbers for your specific item before you commit to anything.
Sample Lead Time, MOQ & Fees
How long does custom sample production take for ODM/OEM orders?
For custom products such as promotional gifts, custom bags, and outdoor gear, sample production typically takes about 7–10 days. The exact timeline depends on the product type and specification complexity. We confirm the schedule with you before starting production.
What is the MOQ for custom logo products?
MOQ varies by product category. For example, custom logo canvas totes have been produced at 750 pieces, and custom travel sets (pillow + blanket) at 200 pieces. Please share your target product and quantity, and we will confirm the applicable MOQ for that specific item.
Does the sample fee apply to ODM and OEM orders?
Sample fees are charged per the PI and are commonly prepaid. In many cases, the sample fee is deductible from the bulk order payment — for example, a custom canvas pencil pouch sample fee of approximately $86 was offset against the mass production cost. Whether this applies depends on the product and order terms.
Can you provide samples before bulk production for custom bags and promotional items?
Yes. We routinely produce samples before mass production for custom bags, insulated bottles, LED badges, bookmarks, and other promotional products. Sample production generally takes 7–10 days, and we ship samples via express services such as DHL.
How is the bulk production lead time determined after sample approval?
Bulk production time depends on the order quantity and product type. We ask for your required delivery date at the quotation stage, then align the production schedule accordingly. Payment terms are commonly 30% deposit and 70% balance before shipment, as stated in the PI.
What information do you need to confirm sample lead time and MOQ for ODM/OEM products?
To confirm sample lead time and MOQ, please provide the product type, target quantity, logo artwork, and any specification requirements (size, material, color, etc.). We will verify the details and issue a PI with confirmed sample time, MOQ, and payment terms before production begins.
